Dear Sterling High School, we sing in Thy name,

Our Alma Mater, we proudly proclaim;

Built on a creed of faith and noble deed.

To mold our lives and send us forth that we may succeed.

A part of out lives. Thy creed will always be.

Out solemn vow, we pledge ourselves to Thee;

Our loyalty enduring faithfully,

Our Alma Mater, hail to Thee.

Sterling we hail Thee with love, joy, and pride,

The high and the mighty "Hawk" is our guide:

Your sons and daughters will ever sing Thy praise.

Maroon and Gold, out colors bolo.

Dear Sterling High.

To a woman whose sense of humor brightens our days, whose witty sayings
cheer us, we pay tribute. For the past ten years, we have viewed her dignified
figure strolling gracefully up the halls of S.H.S. She has become ,a part of us and
she is looked upon with respect. We take great pleasure in dedicating the 1962
Hawk to everyone's friend.

Mrs. Rosa M. Foust

Every pupil should ask himself from time to time the following
questions: Why do I go to school? If remaining in school until gradu-
ation were left entirely with me to decide upon would I graduate?
Statistics have shown that the amount of income a person receives
is governed largely by the amount of formal education he has.

Is this the only justifiable reason for staying in school as long as
I can? What are some rewards that I must endeavor to attain other
than material ones? Am I doing my very best in all of my classes, or
ami doing just enough to "get by"? Do I respect the rights of others?
When I am tempted to think evil and immoral thoughts, do I have the
courage and fortitude to immediately dispel them from my mind? Do
I perform my tasks well, or must some-one "go over" the task assigned
to me.

Earnestly asked and truthfully answered, the foregoing questions
should tend to stimulate within each individual student a desire to
analyze both objectively and subjectively the areas in which he is
strong and also those areas where he apparently needs help from out-
side sources.

A full knowledge of one's self is a prerequisite to successful living,
both now and in the future.

The Hawk is a traditional part of Sterling High School.
Interpreted in terms of school ideas, its tugged strength and
durability mean loyalty, high standards of conduct and service
to the yearbook staff. May the Hawk be a lasting remipdet of
the noble qualities our symbol represents and a source of enjoy-
ment throughout the years.

To our beloved instructors we say, " Thanks for your patience
with the staff and for your gracious attitude toward making our
HAWK a success."
